Wishing Well Lyrics by Bob Mould

Wishing Well Lyrics

    Wishing well runs wet and dry
    I wish for things i never had
    Surrounds and wells up in my eyes
    The screaming voice, it lies
    Wishing well gets someone's attention
    Every wish you ever had
    In a day of nights, in the darkest of light
    Sits and cries, watch the lies

    Could you give me a wish if i tell you what i want?
    Will the price be no object?
    I wish for dreams of light
    I live for wishing well surprise

    Deepest light, the secret lies
    Wishing well gives you all that you desire
    Homes and trains, and the greenest of plains
    That you ever happened upon
    The silent wish, it calls you out
    Calls you out by name
    Lays upon the plain, on the mountain high
    City lights, wish delights

    What if the waters and wishes appear?
    Will the price be no object?
    I wish for dreams of light
    I live for wishing well surprise

    Twist and shape on the winding twine
    Around the spindle winds
    Wish again, four times again
    Four wishes deep into the well

    There's a price to pay for a wish to come true
    Trade a small piece of your life
    Roots in the soil, uprooting the soil
    Mountain high, the mountain high
    The wish is only to speak a kind
    Kind of word, so benign absurd
    The well, three wishes run dry
    Wishing well is dry
    When no grass grows, the weeds run in line
    Wish three wishes, three wishes run dry
